Pink Skies Ahead

The idea is great and the performances are good but the story is poorly written. The last half hour is good. But the building up to that is very weak and I doubt it is written by anybody who had or knows anything about anxiety attacks. For that matter I doubt the writer even talked to anybody with an anxiety disorder.

It's a shame because if the movie would have been as good as the last 30 minutes it would have been a great movie. Now it's okay and looks more like a teenager coming of age movie.

Isn't the main character supposed to be 20? I get that she has an anxiety disorder, but she acts more like an angsty teenager. It's a little too cringeworthy to watch.

Aesthetically pleasing film that portrays anxiety in a way I've never seen on film before. Teenaged me could have used this film, thank you to Kelly Oxford for helping the next generation.

The plot is okay, just okay. Barden gives a good performance but the dialogue is very poorly written and hackneyed. The film looks nice.

Throughout the entire movie I thought it reminded me of something, and finally I figured what exactly, Girls interrupted, 1999 is also a movie in which everyone says there's something wrong with a main actress, school dropout, anxiety, no goals. But she's 100% sure that she is fine, she starts in denial and must come to this conclusion by herself and, hopefully, get better after all.

It also reminds me of Louis C. K's works, it has a very similar atmosphere, cuz It's also a very smart and bizarre comedy, not everybody will appreciate all those jokes and even more people won't even notice them, but to me there were a couple of moments when I literally laughed out loud alone in my room in the middle of the night, and it says a lot, I guess.

If u liked anything of what I just mentioned then u should definitely give it a try, at least because it has Jessica Barden in it, and she gives one of the best performances in her carrier, so if u like her, don't even hesitate.
